Yes, but compared to cars with similar GT credentials (a 200SX is not a sportscar, neither is an RX8) its heavy. Thats all Im saying, its not because of big fuel tanks or heavy duty hubs , the car is heavy in the first place. Ekona might be right, for it to work dynamically it needs to be 1500KGs, but Ive mever known a car you cant make better by making lighter

Amazing engine, bit of a soft chassis for me. 1M is going to be where its at I think, same engine with a remap but M sport footwork.

Yep, this is the only way to cut the front wheel braking thing which I hate. Switch it and you can put it back on when you want Lum from SXOC BTW??

As we all know, there are very simple things (plenum spacer, HFC, decent sounding air filter, throttle controller doobery) that should have been standard, whats to say a diet shouldnt be included in that list? Id have thought they would have developed the 370Z with a view to weight saving a bit more TBH. The biggest problem the 350 has is weight, plain and simple and this is why this is an interesting topic to me. If it was a 1250KG car then it would go, stop and handle a lot better and would be frankly awesome. If you can find out what creates the weight then you can consider how to remove it, which will improve the car, no question.

Yes, and there are cossies, 200SX's, Skylines and all manner of other cars putting 600lb/ft through much older and weaker designs too. How much do you think an uprated driveshaft adds? 1kg each side? Maybe 2? The prop is another what, 3KG?? An RX8 has two extra doors man! They must be at least 25KG each!! In that pic of the Zeds rear suspension setup, I wonder how much of that was additional bracing added after the first design?? Thats where the weight is for me, a patch to solve a wobbly body.
